Name Something Odd You Love The Smell Of

Freshly mowed lawn.
Elmer's Glue
Yes, to both!

  • As a young child, the smell of a new vinyl air mattress
  • When my kids were babies and in diapers, I used cloth, and the smell of brand new rubber pants
  • Brand new rubber baby bottle nipples
  • Love the fresh and clean smell of an indoor pool (the air in the building where the pool is)
  • Freshly disinfected shower stalls and change rooms (indoor pool)
 

Yes, a great life ... but so many years ago... I'm now a city dweller.
There was something about being woken by the cock-a-doodle-doo of roosters, then getting up and making our way to the sunken kitchen in great aunt and uncles house, parking ourselves at the old wooden table always covered in a plastic tablecloth, and waiting for auntie to serve us an all-out breakfast!

Such warm memories. So peaceful. Do think I had my best sleeps at their house!
 
There was a type of gasoline that smelled great when I was a child and my father was gassing up the car. I don't know if it was the octane or the lead, but I used to hang out the car window to get a sniff. It doesn't smell like that any more.

Lantana plant leaves. Others say they stink, but I love them.

There was a type of alcohol that was only in the doctor's office that I loved. I wonder why only there.

Spent caps from cap guns.
